With AA2 and IF I've been getting regular freezes that I can usually get out of by hitting Ctrl-Alt-Del, it doesn't happen too often and I can live with it. I know other people sometimes get freezes too, so here's a possible solution sent to me by Taylor in Czechoslovakia----------------------------------------------------------------

Alright, try the following and add this to your shortcut:

-maxmem=2048 -nosplash -emptyworld -winxp -malloc=tbb3malloc_bi

I use 2048 since Iam running 4GB currently, you have to adjust this for your own memory amount.

Turn off or change settings in the ingame options/cfg:

* antialiasing off (instead we will activate FSAA in the .cfg)* make sure your render and resolution have the same settings in your .cfg* FSAA=1 * GPU_MaxFramesAhead=1;* GPU_DetectedFramesAhead=1;* postFX=0;* vsync=0;* AToC=0;* PPAA=0;

Try this and look into it if you have still the same amount of issues....

Well it didn't work for me, I just got a freeze.I had this in the shortcut properties line--maxmem=2048 -nosplash -emptyworld -winxp -malloc=tbb3malloc_bi

which didn't do the trick. Maybe I need to do all the other cfg stuff too but I think it's too techy for me.

PS- I heard somewhere else that I might need to update my DirectX drivers, I might have a crack at that too.Incidentally I'm Win XP Home but I hear Microsoft are stopping support for it in April, so i'll have to buy a new OS, shall i get Win 7?

Get Win7 64 bit, stay away from vista!

other notes in general:

defrag you hard drive

check for registry errors

spyware,adware, viruses

Game wise run vanilla and see if the game runs period, then add a mod one by one, lose all the parameter codes except -nosplash and go from there.Add stuff as you see the game working.__________________
